I am creating a custom form in Outlook 2000. I'm trying to use VBScript rather than VBA (even though I'm more familiar with Visual Basic language) because I can't seem to see how the VBA will associate to the form I'm creating.

My problem:

I need to know how to bind things to the form. I have a bunch of comboboxes and labels and what not, but if I try to do something with them I get an error that says object not found. For example if I try to say ComboBox1.Text = Label1.caption, I get combobox1 not found (I can assure you that it's there)

I did some researching on MSDN, and it talks about creating the outlook object, but doesn't specifically tell you how to do that. I am also assuming that either doing that will fix the problem, or each object on my form will have to have some code behind it to bind it to the form.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Something to Add:
Also, if I type any text in a text box, and click send, it doesn't show up on the read or compose form from the receiver's mailbox.

I started this from from the message template form. On that form is what appears to be a giant textbox. Any text in that box transfers no problem, so I tried to copy it (it is different, has different properties and such) and I got prompted saying that "there is already one of those on this form... if you are trying to use more than one at run time, only one will work properly" something to that affect?

Alright thanks again!
